Just bought my first lathe, a Clausing 111. How did I do?

There is so much parts with it, I don't know what are they. Seem some of them are for a milling, not a lathe.

Everything seems to work on it, apart a smaller 4 jaws chuck, a screw is broken in it.

Oil is thick on it, I would start by cleaning it and re-oil it.

Any Facebook/Reddit group recommendations on that particular model/brand? I would like to be able to do metric threads, I think it's complicated.

Also, can we know the fabrication year from the Serial Number?
